With overnight lows only expected to drop into the 70s, and even the lower 80s in some locations, before climbing once again into the upper 90s and 100s tomorrow, excessive heat warnings and heat advisories remain in place from the central and southern Plains to the Southeast. High heat and humidity is expected to persist from the southern Plains to the Southeast, while building north into the northern Plains into the weekend. A slow-moving frontal boundary remains in place from the central Plains to the Mid Atlantic. This boundary will remain a focus for showers and storms as it drifts across the region tomorrow before pushing farther south and east over the weekend. Some of these storms may become strong to severe -- potentially producing damaging winds and flooding rains. The greatest threat for severe weather late today extends from the lower Missouri Valley to the Southeast, before the focus shifts a little farther to the north over the Ohio Valley on Friday. By Saturday, with the front pushing farther south, showers and storms will be likely across the Southeast, with severe winds and heavy rain possible. Strong to severe storms will be possible later today and tomorrow across Montana, before shifting east into eastern Montana and North Dakota on Saturday. Storms that develop will have the potential to produce damaging wind and hail. Pereira Graphics are available at https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/basicwx/basicwx_ndfd.php
